MARK SHIELDS

In his post just below Radley Balko quotes pundit Mark Shield as saying,"It's an insult to Americans when a politician stands up and says that Americans know better how to spend their own money than the government does. I'm tired of it."

Have we considered the possibility that maybe the government really does know how to spend Mark Shields money better than Mark Shields does? I have been watching Shields on TV, off and on, for years and I have never heard him say anything remotely intelligent.
